Atelier-Beads Rosaries and Prayer Beads
Focus: Seasonal
This special department focuses on rosaries appropriate to the season–sometimes the season of the church year, at other times the seasons of Nature. During Advent, our seasonal focus will be on Christmas-themed rosaries for Catholics and Anglicans. Please visit our 2011 collection.
Anglican Rosaries
Anglican Rosaries
Our Anglican prayer beads are made from gemstones, natural materials, unusual and rare beads, and vintage or antique beads. They incorporate crosses recast in bronze or sterling silver from rare old collectible pieces. Most of our Anglican rosaries are Scripture-themed.
Our beaded Anglican rosaries are made with the best quality jeweler’s flexible wire and will last for years of wear. Our hand-knotted Anglican rosaries are knotted either on non-stretch 100% cotton braided cord or manmade synthetic leather cord. Anglican Rosaries >>
Catholic Rosary
Catholic or Marian Rosaries
Our Catholic rosaries are made from gemstones, natural materials, and a variety of antique and contemporary trade beads. The fixtures are cast in sterling silver or bronze from a collection of rare old crucifixes and center medals. Browse our collection for traditional five-decade rosaries, single-decade rosaries, wrist rosaries for men, and bracelet rosaries for women. We’re also noted for our collection of Irish Penal Rosaries.
As with all our rosaries, your Atelier-Beads Catholic rosary will be strung on the best quality jeweler’s wire or will be hand-knotted on pure cotton or synthetic leather. Catholic Rosaries>>
Lutheran Rosaries
Lutheran Rosary
Beauty and simplicity of style are the hallmarks of Atelier-Beads’ Lutheran prayer beads. Our Lutheran prayer beads enable the user to meditate on the Shorter Catechism. They are made from a collection of gemstones and manmade beads in soft, Lenten or spring colors. The plain Latin crosses are made from lead-free pewter.
Your Lutheran rosary will be strung on the best quality jeweler’s wire for years of wear and use. Visit often, as we are planning to expand our collection of Lutheran beads to include hand-knotted Bethlehem Olive Wood and plain, affordable wooden “starter” beads.
Beaded Orthodox Chotkis or Prayer Ropes
Beaded Chotkis or Prayer Ropes
Our beaded Orthodox chotkis are made in the 33-bead style from gemstones, natural materials, and vintage or rare beads. Their crosses or crucifixes are cast in bronze or sterling silver from rare old pieces. You will notice that we have taken great care that the separating bead directly above the cross has a third hole drilled in it. This is so that the pendant cross can emerge from the chotki in a more natural and traditional manner. Our chotkis are hand knotted on sturdy, non-stretch 100% cotton cord for years of wear and use.
Unitarian-Universalist Beads
Peace Chaplets
The Peace Chaplet is a traditional Croatian devotion, composed of the Apostles Creed, and seven times the Our Father, Hail Mary, and Gloria. It is also known as the “Worker’s Rosary” that the Blessed Mother will never refuse to hear, if prayed from the heart. With its seven groups of three beads, it is perfectly suited for people of any denomination to use in prayers for peace.
Wrist and Bracelet Rosaries
Our Wrist and Bracelet Rosaries are made for women and men in Catholic, Anglican, and Orthodox styles
